Gothic & Haunted Houses

Northanger Abbey

by Jane Austen

Innocent Catherine Morland arrives in Bath with her head full of Gothic novels, seeing sinister mysteries in everyday events and misjudging everyone around her. Austen's playful early work affectionately satirizes Gothic fiction while delivering her signature keen observations on society, class, and growing up.
